CH 86

Fang He silently packed his things, and sat next to Li Zhen. Li Zhen put his hand on Fang He’s shoulder, he did not mention Fang He’s experience in that laboratory, instead they talked about their encounter with Sun Peng. 

After Li Zhen finished talking about what Sun Peng had seen and heard in the laboratory, he looked at Li Yue and said, “Not only do we want to save innocent children who are being used as experiments, I also made a breakthrough on my research, but I need the equipment inside the lab.”

Li Yue immediately sat up straight and stared at Li Zhen, “What did you say? There’s already a breakthrough, what progress have you made?”

Li Yue had a vague idea in her heart, has Li Zhen found a solution to the zombie virus?

Li Zhen said, “I already have a way to solve the zombie virus, but I need equipment.” 

Li Yue nodded, and reached out to wipe away the tears that dropped from the corners of her eyes. As a mother, what she felt most guilty about was that she failed to give birth to her son in a peaceful era. As soon as Xiao Liang Si was born, his father Liang Peng Fei died in the mouth of a zombie. She didn’t even dare to think about the future, but now that she suddenly heard that Li Zhen already had a general idea on how to solve the zombie virus, Li Yue was a little excited for a while.

After stabilizing her mood, Li Yue glanced at Xiao Liang Si, who was sleeping soundly in the baby basket. Her brows were furrowed. As a mother, she hated the suffering of children the most. When she thought that laboratory, which was admired by many people, actually used children for experiments, Li Yue said angrily, “Those children must be rescued, but it is very difficult to fight with just our strength. According to what that boy, Panjiang said, the psychic mutants in that laboratory control the upper-level of the base management. The defense of the laboratory is definitely not easy. Do you have plans?”

“We want to know how much information Wei Panjiang knows.”

Li Yue nodded, “That’s easy, let’s go, I’ll take you to ask.”

Fang He and Li Zhen quickly followed. Wei Panjiang’s room was also on the second floor, so after turning a corner, Li Yue stood at the door and knocked. As soon as she knocked twice, she heard Wei Panjiang’s voice roaring inside, “Grandpa, you think you can escape my questions just because you turned into a tree? Just wait, I’ll go find a lighter!”

Then Fang He heard Old man Wei’s scolding from the inside, “You son of a bitch, I’m your grandfather, do you have to be so offensive?!”

“What did I do, ah. I just want you to tell me, where have you been since that day? I thought you were taken away by the people in that laboratory. I tried so hard to find you, but you are actually just outside looking for someone else as a grandson!”

Behind him, Old Man Wei squeaked and hummed, but didn’t say why. Outside, the corners of Li Yue’s mouth twitched, after knowing that Wei Panjiang was a young man in his early twenties, her impression of him had collapsed. 

When the door opened and they came in, Fang He couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the birch tree in the room, and Wei Panjiang jumping around the birch tree.

Wei Panjiang saw Li Yue come in with people and muttered, “Not even knocking on the door. Li Yue, you really don’t view me as the boss!”

Li Yue rolled her eyes, “I knocked, but you were busy burning the tree and didn’t hear it.”

Old man Wei swung his branch, shaking them for a while until he turned into his human form. He wiped his old face, and in the end, he explained, “Xiao Panzi, your grandpa didn’t sneak away. I was lazy at that time and turned into a tree to shy away from work. But I drank too much before and accidentally fell asleep, and when I woke up, you were all gone.”

Wei Panjiang was relieved after hearing this. He asked this question because he wanted to know if the laboratory had done anything to his old man. Since he fell asleep from the beginning, he should not have received any psychological hints from the psychic mutant. 

Wei Panjiang turned his head to look at Li Zhen and Fang He, “Li Yue brought you guys over, you must have something going on, say it.”

Li Zhen looked at Wei Panjiang with cold eyes. Wei Panjiang saw it, and from the bottom of his heart, he felt a little hairy. Immediately, he felt that Li Yue’s cold chilling glare was nothing compared to the terrifying glare directed at him right now.

Fang He couldn’t help laughing, thinking that when he faced Li Zhen’s eyes at the beginning, he was also afraid to look straight at him. Fang He then pulled Li Zhen’s hand, “Li Zhen, tell him.”

Li Zhen held Fang He’s hand in return, and pulled Fang He to sit on the bench opposite Wei Panjiang, then said, “Your consciousness has been invaded by spiritual forces. If it is not for external forces to help you regularly, it is estimated that you would have been mentally deranged.” 

Old man Wei immediately became uneasy, “What did you say? What happened to my grandson?”

Wei Panjiang took out a small bottle of Erguotou wine and stuffed it into old man Wei’s hand, “Grandpa, you go to the inner room to drink some wine first, there are snacks in the cupboard, don’t listen to his nonsense.”

How could old man Wei go and drink calmly like this, but looking at his grandson’s warning eyes, old man Wei was at a loss and could only grab the bottle of wine and go in.

As soon as old man Wei left, Wei Panjiang set up countless vines at the door, which seemed to be soundproof before stopping, then raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Zhen, “Li Yue just told you right, don’t fool me with this. If you want to know something, say it directly, no need to beat around the bush so much.” 

Fang He really wanted to kick him. Is this person mocking him for fooling the old man? Obviously the old man wanted it himself.

Wei Panjiang continued, “Also, my grandfather only has one grandson, so don’t butt in.”

“Wei Panjiang, can you speak well!” Li Yue couldn’t listen anymore, and slapped the table in front of Wei Panjiang, smashing the table with a bang.

Little Liang Si, who was sleeping well, started to cry with a ‘wah’. In an instant, an electric current spread throughout the entire room. No one of the four was spared, and their hair stood on end in an instant, and on the top of Wei Panjiang’s head, there was a faint smoke coming out. 

Li Yue glared at Wei Panjiang with her electrified hairstyle, then turned to coax the child.

Fang He’s hat was pushed up by his hair and almost fell to the ground. Fang He hurriedly touched, thankfully, the straight standing hair covered the two cat ears.

Fang He turned his head to look at Li Zhen. Li Zhen had a cold face topped with straight upright hair, and he actually looked quite cool and handsome.

Li Zhen smiled helplessly, then he helped Fang He put his hat back on. He pressed it down, and it could barely hold it. 

The two turned to look at Wei Panjiang. They were surprised to find that Wei Panjiang, who had been fine just now, seemed to be in a bad condition at this time. Although Xiao Liang Si’s current spread to the four of them, it was not very powerful. At most, it would make their bodies shudder, but Wei Panjiang’s face was shaking uncontrollably. His hands were tightly grasping the armrest of the chair, and the potroding blue veins showed that he was enduring great pain.

“Li Zhen, is he going to lose his mind?”

Li Zhen nodded, “His consciousness was damaged, and he wouldn’t last long. It’s his luck that it’s only breaking out now.”

“Then you won’t treat him?” 

Li Zhen pressed the hair sticking out from Fang He’s ear, “Without his approval, the treatment would be very dangerous. If the rejection is severe, it will kill him. Wait until he passes out from the pain.”

Fang He covered his hair that was curled up beside his ears, and looked at Li Zhen. Is this person really not taking revenge?

Wei Panjiang no longer had the strength to refute him, so he gritted his teeth and looked at Li Yue, enduring the pain and said slowly, “Li Yue, go and call old Song over.”

Li Yue was also surprised when she saw Wei Panjiang’s condition, and hurried to find the person with Xiao Liang Si in her arms. 

Old Song ran over and was stunned for a moment when he saw Li Zhen, who looked very similar to Li Yue. As soon as he saw Wei Panjiang’s condition, he quickly took out the acupuncture bag and hurriedly disinfected the needles.

But this time was different from the past. Wei Panjiang, who had been pierced with many silver needles on his head, showed no sign of improvement. His consciousness was already somewhat confused. Countless vines appeared out of control around him. Old Song couldn’t get close, and kept shouting from the outside of the vines, but Wei Panjiang was unable to control the vines.

Fang He grabbed Li Zhen’s arm, “Li Zhen, do you want to try it? It’s better than him dying of insanity right now.”

Li Zhen nodded, and his powerful mind power pushed over, immediately surrounding Wei Panjiang’s consciousness. Wei Panjiang fainted in an instant, and those wildly waving vines immediately lost their motivation and stopped stiffly in place. 

Li Zhen closed his eyes slightly, and carefully controlled his mind power. Without disturbing Wei Panjiang’s consciousness, he repaired the consciousness of Wei Panjiang, which had been damaged by the psychic mutant, and only when the repair was completed without danger did Li Zhen open his eyes.

“Well?” Fang He asked.

“There is still a little remnant deep in his consciousness, and it needs his cooperation. When he wakes up, it will depend on his own will.”

Li Yue patted Xiao Liang Si’s back lightly and frowned slightly when she heard this sentence, “Is it so serious?” 

Old Song next to him was almost crying, “The boss is like this once every day, but it wasn’t so bad before. Second leader, you have to persuade him.”

Li Yue nodded, “Go back and do your work first, I will persuade him.”

When old Song went out, Li Zhen said, “From what I can deduce, there are at least five psychic mutants in the laboratory, and this is a hint of insanity made by their combined efforts, so it is not easy to solve.”

Li Zhen didn’t mention the most troublesome thing. Those five psychic mutants may have found a way to use the power of the meteorite. If they were able to use their abilities as much as mutated zombies, things would become troublesome. 

Li Yue was silent. It would be better to talk about other abilities, but it was already difficult to deal with one psychic mutant, let alone five.

When Li Zhen said this, Wei Panjiang had already woken up. He closed his eyes for a while, before saying, “There are six psychic mutants, and the one leading them is called Cheng Qidong, a biologist and the general director of the laboratory.”

“Cheng Qidong is a psychic mutant?” Fang He’s face turned pale.

“He-miao?” Li Zhen grabbed Fang He’s arm with some worry. 

Fang He’s lips trembled and he said slowly, “It wasn’t like this before. What went wrong? It’s true that the guards in the laboratory are psychic mutants, but Cheng Qidong was not a mutant before.”

Fang He’s statement made Li Yue and Wei Panjiang somewhat baffled, and Wei Panjiang asked directly, “Before?”

Fang He didn’t answer him, but looked at Li Zhen with some trepidation, “In the past, when he was just an ordinary person, he had to avoid many experiments, so he still has scruples, but if he is a mutant now, then he will be more crazy. He definitely won’t let go of any experiments!”

Li Zhen frowned tightly and hugged Fang He, “Maybe it has something to do with the meteorite. Maybe, he just figured out a way to use the meteorite, He-maio, it’s not your fault.” 

Fang He closed his eyes slightly and nodded, “Whether it’s because of me or not, we have to speed up.”

Although Li Zhen didn’t tell him his specific plan, Fang He knew that everything Li Zhen did after entering the base had a purpose.

Li Zhen nodded, and didn’t think the two of them were strange at all. He hugged Fang He and sat on the bench, then he stroked Fang He’s back, then looked at Wei Panjiang, “Our purpose is to destroy the laboratory. Now, can you tell us what you know? Especially about the crater in the back mountain.”
